  6. What does the average customer journey look like? “There is no standard user path... Seek to understand and assign value to your customers’ unique paths” –Google/Nielsen: ‘The Customer Journey: Travel’, 2010

  7. Methodology and Caveats • Each advertiser is exclusive to Digital Window • Two are OTAs; one specialises in transport • Each are large, brand-name advertisers with established programmes • Data is limited to the affiliate channel – does not include what goes on outside it • Travel bookings are considered purchases... and not just because of cost • Considered purchases usually have longer latency times... is this reflected in the affiliate channel? • Users might be researching and booking on different devices – difficult to build up a full picture of the customer’s path to purchase

  8. Advertiser A - Transport • Promotion: Customer-facing offer of substantial discounts on journeys promoted on site and through the newsletter of a well-known content site • Promotion period: 10th - 11th November (newsletter went out on 10th) • Comparison period: 3rd and 4th November

  9. Across the programme as a whole, number of affiliates involved per transaction

  10. For sales the affiliate was involved in, number of affiliates involved per transaction

  16. Advertiser B - OTA • Promotion: Exclusive stretch and save code - £x off £x spend - given to two voucher code sites exclusively in the first and second half of the month. • Promotion period: • Voucher code site A – 1st -16th January • Voucher code site B – 17th – 31st January • Comparison period: 1st – 28th February

  26. Advertiser C - OTA • Promotion: Two promotions – cashback + voucher code, and cashback-only increase, for a major cashback site. • Promotion period: • 5th – 11th July – 4% cashback, 5% discount code • 26th July – 1st August – 9% cashback, no voucher code • Comparison period: 12th – 25th July – no voucher code or cashback increase

  36. Conclusions • Why so many single referrer sales? • Many touchpoints in the customer journey sit outside the affiliate channel; many advertisers do the job of their affiliates • Why do we not see a greater mix between affiliates? • Typical make-up of a travel programme: a large number of content and comparison sites, but a dominance of cashback and voucher codes • What does this tell us about the part affiliates play in the customer’s total path to purchase? • Affiliate sites do not play as significant a part in customer journey as in retail or mobile. • Incentive-based traffic is an easy route to market; advertisers which invest in their programmes attract a greater mix of affiliates
